Activities tailored to residents' interests. Families express appreciation for diverse activities that cater to residents' interests, as seen at Brookstone Terrace of Woodruff. Staff should engage residents in meaningful activities to promote engagement and socialization.
Properly maintained facilities. Reviews emphasize the importance of cleanliness and upkeep, with residents and families expecting well-maintained interior spaces and grounds. The common areas, private rooms, and outdoor areas should all be kept in excellent condition.
